Adoption Process
If you are interested in adopting from JCAPL, an Adoption Application must be completed. The application will be reviewed by one of our Adoption Coordinators. We are committed to making good matches between our animals and their potential new homes. If the application
is approved you will be required to complete an Adoption Agreement.

Dogs/Puppies (Click Here for Cats/Kittens)
JCAPL volunteers have puppies and dogs available for adoption each Saturday from 12 to 4pm at the PetSmart in White Oak Crossing in Garner. JCAPL does not have a shelter. Our dogs and puppies are in foster homes. If you see a puppy or dog you would like to meet on the JCAPL Petfinder page or featured on our website, please contact us by sending an email to adopt@jcapl.org. Please note that we do require a completed application in order to schedule individual meetings. Applications do not commit you to adopting nor do they guarantee approval.
The adoption fee for puppies/dogs is $175 and includes:
- Spay/Neuter ($100 deposit required to adopt an unneutered/unspayed puppy – more info)
- Heartworm tested and current on prevantation
- Deworming
- Current on vaccines (includes rabies vaccine 4mos or older)
- Current on monthly flea and tick prevention

Some of JCAPL’s adoptable cats and kittens can be seen at the Luv-A-Pet Center at the Petsmart at White Oak Shopping Center in Garner during their regular business hours. JCAPL volunteers are at the White Oak Luv-A-Pet Center Saturdays from 10am-2pm and have additional foster cats and kittens on site during those hours.
If you see a cat or kitten or kitten at the Luv-A-Pet Center at a time a JCAPL volunteer is not available, please let a Petsmart manager know and they will be able to assist you. If you are interested in meeting a cat/kitten you have seen on the JCAPL Petfinder page or featured on our website, or are not able to be at Petsmart during our adoption hours, please contact us by sending an email adopt@jcapl.org. We will then get in touch with you as soon as possible to arrange a meeting. Please note that we do require a completed application in order to schedule individual meetings. Applications do not commit you to adopting nor do they guarantee approval.
